Shame on you for even posting such nonsense.
Yep, Ford forbid that I post facts.
Just because you don't like them doesn't mean that they aren't true.
Just so you know, I'm also a veteran. No need to thank me or the other veterans who are not war mongers or glorify war and killing.

No, that is what the OP said, I was just clarifying his own words so that he might understand them.

Facts are facts.
I can imagine what you think of lies (oops, you do quote Faux News, don't you).

..................
Actually, I've never quoted Fox News. I don't provide links as a general rule. I simply state my opinions here based on my knowledge of life which is extensive. That's all anyone really does on this forum....post opinions.

Clearly I'm wasting my time. You simply don't get it. The quote I provided had no link whatsoever in it .... just you mouthing off.

You should get up every day and thank God for our military. You should go to the airport as many do, welcome them home and thank them for their service to this country.

You sit there all pompous and judgmental and expect me to even consider looking at one of your stupid links to the "facts" as you see them??? There are few people I would say aren't deserving of living in this country, but ....

You still never answered my questions. If your such an expert on Iraq and whats going on over there when where you there? How long did you stay? where did you go?
She's an "expert" on everything from her own tiny little world.

Can you tell I'm angry? I am over the top furious. Disagree with policy if you like; I do it all the time. But writing inflammatory, disgusting rhetoric about our military as a whole is inexcusable and unconscionable.

But I guess I should thank God we live in a country where someone doesn't roust people like this out of their homes and chop off their heads.

I look at it like this if they can say what they want however moronic and hateful it is I did my job and our military is doing it job protecting freedom. These people would get a pretty big wake up call if they said some of this stuff in other countries.

She has proven in the past she knows nothing about the military but lies and says she was in it and still work with people in them military. Alot of people are such expert on it and whats going on in Iraq but have never been in the military nor been to Iraq. Amazing really.

If you can find the numbers of military votes for each candidate, I'd be surprised because I couldn't.
What I did find is below:

here is something from an actual CREDIBLE source something you never seem to have. See you can post things from conspiracy blogs and what not but thats not the same as something with credibility. Maybe take a journalism class

Quote:
“The military has been perceived as a conservative Republican institution,” said Peter Feaver, a political science professor at Duke University and a special adviser to the National Security Council from 2005 to 2007.
“A lot of people thought that eight years of frustration with the Bush administration was going to undermine that,” he said. “This evidence suggests that it hasn’t undermined it as much as they thought, at least not yet.”

Look at post No. 27, there are ½ dozen links.
I was living in Okinawa at the time; I work for the military community and have for over 20 years, since I was active duty.
Everyone involved with the military was on lock down for months after the rapes and other petty crimes that occurred in Okinawa.

Why would I do that? I work for the military community and support them daily.

Yep, why be educated, your opinion trumps facts any day.
BTW, thought I didn’t post any links.

Yep, the truth is inflammatory and disgusting.
Not quite as disgusting as sending kids to the ME for the 4th time, though.
That’s the really disgusting part.

Apparently, you can’t handle the truth.

About the Rape of Nanking, I think you'd hold the US to a higher standard, I'm sorry that you don't.

How many kids were raped by teachers last year?

During the second set you may have to adjust your volume.

We destroyed freedom in Afghanistan? I guess GregW overlooked the 9/11 attack.... With moonbat liberals like GregW making comments like this, it is no wonder that the military votes overwhelmingly Republican and that Democrat presidents such as Obama get the response they deserve from the rank and file...
